Changes from Brawl

Aesthetics

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.558636301214041;margin-top:4pt;margin-bottom:6pt;">Like every other veteran, Ice Climbers now appear much more vibrant and their appearance is more based off their appearance in their games with a small realistic touch.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.558636301214041;margin-top:4pt;margin-bottom:6pt;">Chain grabs have been very much nerfed as they’re now extremely much harder to perform as the second Climber does not perform grabs along with the lead Climber.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.558636301214041;margin-top:4pt;margin-bottom:6pt;">Ice Shot can now be absorbed with absorbing specials much like it could be in Melee.

Description

Neutral Special

Ice Shot

9% (hammer), 1-5% (ice)

An icicle comes from a small portal, then hit by the Ice Climbers. The icicle melts and loses power over time. The icicle can travel farther than Final Destination.

Alternate 1

Glacier Shot

9% (hammer), 2-6% (ice)

The icicle is larger and does a bit more damage but it travels more slowly.

Alternate 2

Side Special

Squall Hammer

2% (hits 1-11) (22% total)

The Ice Climbers spin around, hitting opponents with their hammers. It can help regain some horizontal movement in the air, but causes helplessness afterwards. Very difficult to connect all 11 hits.

Alternate 1

Chill Squall Hammer

1% (hits 1-11) (11% total)

The spin produces a chilling wind effect that has a windbox for reduced damage.

Alternate 2

Up Special

Belay

16% (hit)

The leading Ice Climber throws the following Ice Climber with a rope. The following Ice Climber then pulls the leader upwards. If there is a nearby edge, the following Climber will target it, leading to a safe recovery for both Ice Climbers. If there is only one Climber, the Climber will get a small hop, then fall into helplessness.

Alternate 1

Independent Belay

13% (hit)

The throw range with both climbers is slightly decreased for a slightly more ranged individual hop.

Alternate 2

Down Special

Blizzard

1-2%

Each Ice Climber blows icy wind , damaging their opponent.

Alternate 1

Freezing Wind

1-2%

The Ice Climbers blow a soft chilly wind that may freeze opponents. They always blow in the same direction.

Final Smash

Iceberg

2% (hit), 5% (frozen)

The Ice Climbers summon a huge Iceberg into the middle of the field. Touching the iceberg results in freeze damage, and possibly becoming frozen. Being frozen when pushed off the edge can lead to a fatal death, as the frozen player falls with full speed.
